iTunes will not play music I jst bought through iTunes

I made a purchase through iTunes yesterday on my PC. After the music downloaded, iTunes requires me to authorize my PC but will not play the music that I just bought. All my other music on iTunes plays without any problems. I am continually reauthorizing my PC but it still will not play the new music.

Windows, Windows 10

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for recent store downloads typically indicates you have corrupt or incomplete copies. Delete the tracks that won't play from your library without hiding from your purchase history. Redownload using the cloud links that should remain, or close iTunes and reopen if they don't show up straight away. While downloading click the activity widget and turn off the option that allows for simultaneous downloads.


If that hasn't helped see If iTunes prompts you to authorize your computer when you try to play iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support.
